Wangchuk from NYC :

Travel restrictions on Tibetans who want to visit India is arbitrary & illegal. This is to control their right to see the Dalai Lama for religious teachings. It's a denial of freedom of religion but standard procedure for the Chinese Govt who doesn't respect basic human rights.

Pema :

I've heard that Han Chinese who live in Tibetan areas had their passports confiscated as well. Some have speculated that the ban on travel is not absolute, rather, anyone wanting to travel abroad needs to apply to have their passport returned and explain their reason for travel.
